Dementia is a dreadful thing. Last week he thought the pedal bin told him to have a tenner on at Aintree.

Hi:
I am having a similar problem since Amazon firestick. I do NOT stream music, videos and/or movies, and my television turns itself on after several times throughout the day of turning it off (housewife). I have resulted to just letting it stay on and just keep the volumn offLaughLaughLaughLaugh (down). Can anyone give me a suggestion on what to do? This can't be good for my electric bill. HELP!!!!

The tv is turning itself back on, this is the reason why I turn the volumn down. I'm watching another tv in another roomGrin. The tv that turns itself on is upstairs and I'm in my living room downstairs.



My tv is doing the same thing. It just randomly comes on out of nowhere. Only started doing this after having the firestick. Because my regular remote is broken so you have to use the tv to turn on etc. Do anyone knows what's going onLaughLaugh


Same here, my TV keeps turning on, even after I put firetv to sleep

They never sleep

They had to sack him. He was too slow driving the forklift around the cattle farm, sorry, warehouse, hence his nickname stick.

You don't say TV type. Samsung? Is there not something in menus to stop this? Have you looked?
Even ye olde scart could send signals requsting stuff like this, it's up to the TV to ignore it.
I'd a tv that very annoyingly always tried to switch to any device plugged in when you turned it on, when normally I just want the DTV.

Can't you just use the "Source" button, and switch it to TV?

what I don't understand is how the video starts playing? it was on pause, when I switch over to fire stick and it's been left on youtube, I still manually have to press play, but this switches itself of automatically?
